| dc.description.abstract | The case study concerns a wind farm project by TransAlta in the municipality of St-Valentin, situated south of Montréal near the border with Vermont. The project was to generate 51.8 MW, using 19 turbines of 2 MW each and six turbines of 2.3 MW. Twenty-eight potential sites were under consideration. Six public organizations were involved in the regulatory process: In July 2011, the government rejected the project (BAPE, 2011a). The project was off the list of HydroQuébec selected projects for the second call for proponents (2005-2007). | en_US |
